Besides the great and renowned auteurs, the history of Italian cinema also includes a number of peculiar, lesser-known but very interesting filmmakers. This book examines eight Italian ""mavericks"" who were active from the late 1940s onwards: Pier Carpi, Alberto Cavallone, Riccardo Ghione, Giulio Questi, Brunello Rondi, Paolo Spinola, Augusto Tretti, and Nello Vegezzi. 100966518
